What people are saying
Mawter's stories have the uncouth humour reminiscent of Roald Dahl and Paul Jennings and therefore children will find them absolutely delightful.
Belinda’s presentation style was very suitable for our students. She connected well with all year levels and understood how to engage them. I was very impressed with her style personable and very approachable for students. I would welcome Belinda again to speak to our students.
Absolutely wonderful workshop session. Edwina had people up and about and clearing their minds in order to write. Will have Edwina back in a flash.
Jess Black is an excellent presenter. Staff and students immensely enjoyed her writing workshops.
Sarah was insightful and inclusive with participants and created a safe atmosphere for people to be revealing about their memoirs. I would have loved this workshop to go for two days or at least one! It gave me ideas and I loved the chance to do some writing. It was interesting to hear the memoir ideas from other people and to connect with them, even if very briefly.
Pamela is soft spoken and an engaging speaker. She is a fabulous storyteller. Pamela had the students enthralled with her stories, which demonstrated the amount of research she has conducted in writing her stories.
Sarah came and read her fantastic book “Meowster Chef” with our whole school during our Literacy Week, November 2022. Sarah not only engaged each group, but organised a cooking activity for after the reading, which the students loved. Our school is a Special Developmental school, which Sarah hadn’t attended before, so she generously gave up her time to walk around the school and chat with me about how to best engage with our students – amazing!! We all loved having Sarah attend our school and [...]
We loved having Andrew here this week. The boys and teaching staff both enjoyed his sessions and eagerly followed up with more writing and designing. Loved him so much the Year 1 teachers have requested his return next year.
We were very pleased with Angela Sunde. The prep children were especially enthusiastic about her workshop and all felt successful walking away.
Fantastic connection to the students, very easy going and such a humble man.
I am always impressed with the prompt service whenever I ask for recommendations for authors to come to our school. I have used this agency for many years and am very happy with the professionalism displayed.
